Prázdný dům

Description

The family is awaiting a festive day – the fulfillment of faith and a long-awaited promise. Everyone believes that the moment of transition to a 'higher level' is coming. Only one of them – the young girl Klára – begins to doubt. Disturbing encounters, unexpected revelations, and growing doubts put her against her family, the leader of the religious community, and her own faith. What happens when she opens the doors that were meant to stay closed? An intimate story about disillusionment, the courage to doubt, and what connects us – or divides us.
